Chapter 22:

Luce’s P.O.V

I looked at Caleb in shock. I actually couldn’t even begin to process what he’d just said to me. “How is that even fudging possible!” I say, my tone clearly showing my shock. Caleb holds my gaze, though his silver eyes reflect some worry. Which gives me a moment to pause, feeling the need to soothe that worry away. So I lift my hands to his face and rub his cheeks with my thumb gently. Watching as he closes his eyes and visibly relaxes. I smile, feeling better myself because he’d seemed less worried. Though I really didn’t understand this. I had a fudging mate. I know I did because I’d recently rejected his ass for cheating on me. So how in the fudges name could Caleb be my mate! Wait. I thought they didn’t have mates because of their dominant vampire side? Oh I was so fudging confused. My head hurts with all the thoughts spinning through it. I didn’t need sleep now. I needed cake. Thick and chocolaty. Mmm my mouth was watering at the thought. I then realised Caleb has been talking to me and I blushed badly. “Luce. Were you even listening?” he asked. I looked down. “Erm…no. I was thinking of chocolate cake” I admitted. He shook his head at me and laughed. “What. I want chocolate cake.” I whined and he chuckled. “Come on then lets go get the little slurpie some cake before we carry this conversation on. Because I bet you are confused right now?” he questioned and I nodded, though I was more distracted by thoughts of cake I must admit. Mmm cake. Yes l love cake, like a true fatty. Though I’m not a fatty. Win for werewolf fast metabolism! 

After devouring most of the cake. I mean after enjoying a piece of cake. Oh what am I saying I ate so much cake I wouldn’t be surprised if it was currently oozing out of my ears. But anyway that was not the point. After devouring such yumminess I skipped happily back up to my room with a Caleb in tow. Settling back down on the bed I let Caleb pull me back onto his lap. Because well to be honest I felt better when I was there, than when I was sat next to him. ‘That’s because you love him’ My wolf purred in my head and I was shocked by her sudden outburst. I mean she knew he wasn’t her mate. She would of told me if he was. That and we had a mate. ‘I don’t fudging love him!’ I thought. But then I thought harder. To all the times ive spent with him. To how I feel when I’m with him compared to when I’m not with him. Then it dawned on me. ‘Oh my god. I do fudging love him!’ I thought, my mind spinning. ‘Wait. That means I managed to find love without a mate bond!’ I thought happily. ‘Take that fates!’ I thought. Though probably cussing out the fates wasn’t the wisest choice. But what thee hell. Live dangerously and all. “Luce. Are you okay, little slurpie?” Caleb asked, concern in his eyes. I nodded. “I’m sure you have plenty of questions” he says and I grin at him. “I have no idea what you mean” I say feigning innocence. Though from the look on his face he clearly isn’t buying it. Fudgsticks! I thought I’d sounded convincing. “Sure Luce. I believe you. Now come on…spill” he says motioning me to get on with the questions. “Sheesh you’re a little eager” I tease and he nods. I chuckle before realising I really did need to ask him questions. 

Now my need for cake had been satisfied it was time to get back down to more serious matters. Like how this yummy guy who’s arms I’m wrapped in has just informed me I’m his fudging mate! Like seriously! “HowcanIbeyourmateYousaidyoudon’thaveamate” I rushed out, barely breathing to do so. Caleb chuckled. “Yep I got every word of that” he said sarcastically and I scowled at him, causing him to laugh. “Now Luce. Let’s try that again slower” he said still laughing slightly. I scowled once more before nodding.  “How can I be your mate. You said you don’t have a mate?” I questioned and he nodded to alert me he understood. “I didn’t understand this at first either. That’s one of the main reasons I looked into you. Because my fox side said you were our mate and I didn’t understand how that could be.” he said and I nodded. Motioning for him to continue because I knew there was more to this. “Well basically, because you’re a hybrid with their wolf side more dominant. It means your wolf side had a mate like all werewolves do. That will be Jax. But because you’re a hybrid it means you have a vampire side too. Basically your vampire side and mine are entwined by fate and this means that your wolf side, is causing my fox side to surface more. Meaning I’m able to have a mate, being you. But you won’t feel the pull of the mate bond to my fox. But it’s possible if we were to go through the mate bond, the bond would develop properly then. Like with humans and wolves mating. Though honestly I really don’t know.” he says and I gasp. I just couldn’t fudging believe it. Though I knew he wasn’t lying. “That’s why you were afraid I was going to leave wasn’t it?” I asked softly and he nodded. “I couldn’t face losing you Luce” he whispers sounding a little broken. I smile. “Who said I was going anywhere? I’m going to be one of those irritating things you can never free yourself of” I said evilly, rubbing my hands together in what I admit was a creepy way. Caleb chuckled. “Oh and it Erm…explains why your blood is so enticing to me, but not so much to the rest” he says, blushing slightly. Which I must admit is fudging cute!
